I wanted to post an easy Valentine’s Day drink recipe for you guys to try this week. I know a lot of the recipes I post are pretty involved so this should be a refreshing change of pace. If you can find a bottle of champagne, a pound of strawberries, a lemon and a tablespoon of sugar, you’re in business!
The strawberry puree will separate from the champagne pretty quickly, so you might want to serve each glass with a cute swizzle stick. Also, you can leave the seeds in the puree because they will sink the the bottom of the glass and are easy to avoid. This can be served for brunch or as a dessert drink. Or you know, in the middle of the day, just because is fine too!
Strawberry Bellinis
Ingredients:
1 lb fresh strawberries, hulled and halved
1 Tbs sugar
1 tsp lemon juice
1 bottle of champagne or prosecco, chilled
Place strawberries in a bowl and sprinkle sugar over the top. Let macerate for 30 minutes, stirring occasionally. Place macerated strawberries and lemon juice in a blender and puree until smooth. Pour puree into a large pitcher and stir in champagne. Serve immediately.
